>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5757
>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: java - Compiler
>    Affects Versions: 12.4
>         Environment: NetBeans 12.4 _without_ nb-javac installed (started from clean user and cache directories to ensure no trace of nb-javac was left from my old installation). Java 11.0.11 or Java 17-ea+25. Windows 10.

> Very great to see Compile-on-Save now working without the external nb-javac plugin! Here's the first bug I've found around this. To reproduce, create an empty maven-based Java project and add the following class:
> {code:java}
> public class StaticInitializerExample {
>   private static final String SOME_CONSTANT;
>   static {
>     SOME_CONSTANT = "I am a constant.";
>   }
>   public static final void main(String args[]) {
>     System.out.println(SOME_CONSTANT);
>   }
> }
> {code}
> Do a clean build and run. The application will print, "I am a constant."
> Now do any trivial change to the code, such as adding a comment, and save. Run again. The application will now print "null", rather than the correct output.
> Tested on both Java 11.0.11 and Java 17-ea+25. I also tested with NetBeans 11.3 with nb-javac installed; in that case the output is correct (still "I am a constant."). In the latter case you can also change the constant in the static initializer, and CoS will apply the change correctly.
